Kenny's Cafe is not fancy and by no means a fine dining establishment, but if you're into a clean restaurant with staff that takes care of their customers. Then perhaps this is a great place to try. I've worked in a restaurant for nearly half my life and I can honestly tell that it takes quite the effort to uphold a level of cleanliness and consistency especially given the fact that they've been there for over 30 years. I had their salt and pepper pork, well portioned, crispy batter, decently priced with all the right fixings and flavors.. I was not disappointed. I've also tried their prime rib which is a special every other Friday of the week and for $30, you get two sides and a soup. I was impressed with what they served and everything was cooked to standard. (Which is hard to find nowadays) Too clean and well kept to be a hole in the wall but with mountains on one side and the ocean in a tucked cove on the other, Pacifica is definitely worth the trip.

This time, we ordered sautéed string beans, basil garlic eggplant, chow mein with BBQ pork, honey walnut prawns, and salt and pepper fish fillets.

I ordered the truffle beef mushroom fried rice and the honey walnut shrimp. Both dishes were phenomenal texturally. The fried rice had plenty of tender slices of beef and mushrooms, and the shrimp were crispy with a light, crunchy coating. That said, both dishes were a bit too mildly seasoned for my taste and definitely came alive after adding some chili oil. The service was phenomenal. Our server was attentive throughout the meal and even bagged my leftovers in a to go bag without me having to ask, which I really appreciated. Overall, a solid neighborhood spot with fresh ingredients and generous portions.

Very disappointing experience…read more My mom has been a loyal customer here for over 5 years. Even if there's ever been an issue with a dish or the service, she's the type of person who just lets it go and never complains. Today was the first time she actually had a problem. She called in an order for salt and pepper prawns because she had been craving them all day. She picked up the food for our family, and when she got home, we realized they had given us salt and pepper pork instead. Mistakes happen, so I called the restaurant and they told me to bring back the pork and they'd have the correct order ready. When I got there, instead of apologizing or simply exchanging the order, they kept insisting my mom had ordered pork. I explained that misunderstandings happen over the phone, but my mom absolutely ordered the prawns. They refused to believe us. Then they wanted to charge an extra $5 for the prawns. At that point, I was tired of going back and forth. It honestly felt like they cared more about nickel-and-diming us over an extra $5 than providing good customer service. I finally said, "Fine, I'll pay." The husband just responded with, "Go," in a very rude tone. That was the moment I realized they were more focused on collecting the extra $5 than taking care of a loyal customer. The $5 wasn't even the issue--it was the principle. We drove back because of their mistake, returned the incorrect order, and were still expected to pay extra for the meal that was originally ordered. After supporting this restaurant for over five years, my mom wasn't given the benefit of the doubt even once. Customer service goes a long way, especially with long-time customers. Unfortunately, this experience showed us that loyalty doesn't seem to matter here. If you order takeout, I'd recommend having them repeat your order back to you a few times before you hang up to avoid the same situation.

Seriously, EVERY window! So eating here is a sentimental homie hood experience, like it adds more value to the meal!

We ordered Korean chicken wings - the sauce was extra starchy and thick. Flavor was lackluster. The wing itself was fine, good size. Peking pork chop - oh man this...was so disappointing.

I personally like to come here more for the hot pot option. FOOD: 9/10 An ample amount of options to choose from, including appetizers, drinks, meats, vegetables, seafood, noodles, and more. My go-to orders are always the tomato-based soup, brisket, Chinese donut, and homemade biang biang noodles, which, in my opinion, are a MUST! For dessert, no matter how full I am, I always gotta go for the fried buns with condensed milk. Their Thai Tea is also creamy and good! I love how they don't skimp on the milk. The sauce bar is great and has a lot of toppings and sauces to create your own hot pot dipping sauce concoction. My go-to is ponzu, sesame paste, hella garlic, chili oil, hella cilantro, and green onions. You already know. They serve a complimentary scoop of ice cream! They normally have 2-3 flavors to choose from. I always go for the green tea for the most part. SERVICE: 8/10 Staff is always quick, efficient, attentive, and nice! AMBIANCE: 9/10 Indoor and outdoor seating are available. I love how they have good-sized tables inside whether you're dining solo, with a small group, or with a big party. I also love that they still have their COVID shields. Why? I don't know. A little extra sanitary measure wouldn't hurt anyone, so why not? If you sit outside, they also have outdoor heaters, which is always a plus.

It was about 6pm on a Saturday and we luckily got seated, but larger parties started coming in within the hour. - PARKING - Lots of spots around the plaza area! - SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT - You can sit outside or inside, but since it was a little windy that night, we opted to sit inside. They put us in the middle between two parties but we didn't mind. The tables have screens that help with the airflow of the stoves. You mark down everything you want on the menu paper, and then give it to the staff. Once they get your order in, they'll wipe off the menu paper and you can continue to order that way. - FOOD - We all got the half BBQ, half hot pot option. It's definitely a unique experience that you can't find everywhere, so I'm glad we got to try it! I got the mild spicy of the signature soup, but I think if I were to ever come back I'd probably get something without spice as it got to be a bit much with the veggies! The meat quality is pretty decent here as well, and I liked the variety of sides you can get here. - OVERALL - A solid spot with a unique dining experience if you get the half and half option!

A bit overrated San…read moreTung on Irving Street in the Inner Sunset neighborhood of San Francisco, CA, offers a textbook overrated dining experience that struggles to justify its massive, block-spanning hype. The defining hurdle of a visit is the notorious wait time, where customers routinely stand on the sidewalk for an hour or more just to be squeezed into a cramped, noisy, and basic dining room. While the legendary original dry-fried chicken wings are decent, they ultimately fall short of their mythical reputation; the signature sweet-and-spicy glaze leans incredibly saccharine and sticky, masking meat that often turns out slightly dry and over-fried. Beyond the signature wings, the rest of the extensive menu feels surprisingly ordinary and heavy-handed with sodium, making standard dishes like the black bean sauce noodles and string beans feel like ordinary takeout rather than a destination meal. Combined with a hurried front-of-house staff operating an "all-business" conveyor belt to clear tables quickly, the rushed environment and inflated, ala-carte pricing leave you feeling like you paid premium time and money for what is ultimately a standard neighborhood Chinese spot. Thanks

It's clearly a popular spot, and for good reason. The quality of the meats stood out, especially the ribeye, which was flavorful and well-marbled.

The broth was rich and satisfying, complementing the ingredients nicely. The atmosphere strikes a great balance--casual and welcoming, with the feel of a classic Chinese hot pot restaurant. It's an easygoing spot that still delivers on quality, making it perfect for a laid-back dinner with family or friends.

I also appreciated how many appetizers you could order. The honey walnut prawns were easily a 10/10. The self-serve drink fridge was a nice touch too, with sodas, juices, milk teas, and other options. The private karaoke room made it such a fun spot for a birthday. Parking was easy since it's located in a plaza. It gets pretty packed, especially later in the evening since they're open until midnight. Overall, I'd come back more for the fun group experience than the food itself.
